(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) Washington Post White House reporter Jeff Stein posted a lengthy Tweeter thread on the Biden administration’s Build Back Better plan and explained how the end of mankind is near unless the Left’s radical green energy agenda is fully funded and implemented without delay.
OK so for all 6 of your who still have the stomach for this story here’s what my reporting says about the White House-Manchin climate bill/BBB saga dynamics & why it may be intractable
Long thread … sorry sorry

Stein introduced the thread by discussing the White House’s willingness to approve a 300-mile gas pipeline in West Virginia in exchange for the state’s Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin‘s key votes on upcoming renewable energy projects, Twitchy reported.
“The potential swap here makes sense. Climate experts say the renewable $ in Congress is the most important thing,” Stein wrote. “They say: Some oil/gas projects, even if bad for emissions, is dwarfed by upside of climate bill.”
However, Manchin has not guaranteed that he will vote yes to these green initiatives, so the White House has not moved on Manchin’s pipeline project.
Stein waxed on about how neither the White House nor Manchin are committing fully, neither of them giving their word and both remaining mistrustful of one another.
And, according to Stein, “while we wait, the planet is warming catastrophically.”
“The global consequences of failure are fatal, permanent, and global.”
While we wait, the planet is warming catastrophically.
The consequences of failure are fatal, permanent, and global.

No matter what happens between the White House and Manchin, it is clear that Stein has trouble maintaining journalistic integrity when it comes to the matter of climate change, noted myriad Twitter users:
Someone who tweets stuff like this has no business covering this subject as a reporter.
This legislation would have minimal impact on global warming. It also has significant downsides. pic.twitter.com/BAVQQLM37U

these people are religious nuts way more than anti-abortionists, because this isn’t about arbitrarily assigning value to a clump of cells, this is actually believing something that is literally false and grotesquely so https://t.co/V1uBIeiOOV
